The sky was a mass of swirling black and grey forms, decorated with shafts of light that flashed through the sky to touch the earth. The rain was sporadic, but the winds howled across the dry earth, picking up dirt, stones, and sand and hurling them around in complete abandon.

It was one of the worst storms Myoki had ever seen. She was fortunate that she'd been able to find shelter before it had reached its peak. Even so, her fur was soaking wet and her eyes stung from the wind-blown sand and grit. She blinked slowly and often in an attempt to clear it.

She'd been able to take shelter in a cavern that had been formed when a large rock formation had met with an earthshake. The formation had stood, but it was peppered with spaces now, some tiny, others vast. It wasn't completely immune to the wind, as the space was surprisingly cold. Still, she was out of the wind, the wet, and the lightning. That was what was most important.

Her stomach growled at her, reminding her of a failed hunt earlier in the day. She hadn't been too worried, thinking she would have plenty of time to try again. Now it would seem she would have to wait. The sky growled in tune to her stomach. Myoki turned her face to a wall and attempted to ignore them. Shaking her coat vigorously helped to rid her of most of the water. To stay warm however, she would need to move around a bit until she completely dried off. With lack of anything else to do, she decided to explore the cave a little bit more. It was quite large and seemed rather deep. The movement of air suggested their might be another opening. It was worth a look at any rate. She had to do something to ride out the storm.

Sherlolly


Tomar hadn’t been expecting it to rain. He had been out in a clearing, working on helping some of the local creatures with some trouble concerning a large lion-shaped bully, when the skies seemed to rip apart and dump all their contents down on top of him. Though he hadn’t managed to fully confirm that he had fixed their problem, he had been forced to part ways from the small band of cheetah, both parties moving off to find shelter.

He hoped he had managed to help them, and that they had found shelter from the rain. It wasn’t every day they had to deal with such a violent storm, and he was concerned more animals would be out there in need of his help. And with him having no way to help them, either.

Weather was not something he could fix, no matter how much he wanted to help.

To escape the increasingly bad weather, the soggy wild dog moved into the nearest cavern, a hodge-podge of rocks good enough to keep him at least somewhat less wet. He couldn’t complain about the location. And, hey, it came with free company.

“Oh! My deepest apologies,” Tomar offered with a respectful bow of his head, “I did not mean to intrude! Is this your home? I will go find somewhere else to take shelter if I am interrupting you. I promise: I mean you no harm.”

Myoki was not easily startled, normally. However, the sudden appearance of another wild dog, soggy and dripping from the rain, caused her to jump back in sudden alarm. The rain had dampened his scent but she still thought she should have been more aware.

While she waited for her pounding heart to slow back to its normal pace, she glanced warily at the male, wondering if he was a threat. He didn't really look like one, dripping wet as he was. Granted, she probably looked no better.

She sighed in relief after he spoke. He seemed quite sincere and Myoki was inclined to trust him. He had just been seeking shelter from the storm as well. Of course.

"Hello! No, please, stay!" she hurried to reassure him with a friendly smile.

"No, I don't live here. I noticed the weather turning and managed to find this place before it turned nasty. Well, more or less," she said, ruefully. "You are more than welcome to join me until the storm lets up. I am Myoki."

"Then is seems we had the same plan in mind," chuckled Tomar. He was happy and thankful she had decided he could stay, even if it wasn't her home. It was still a place she had found first, and it pleased him that his presence there did not make her nervous. The last thing he wanted was to upset someone he had only just met, and hadn't even introduced himself to yet.

Still dripping wet, he made sure not to splash her as he found a nice spot to sit. Though normally he would shake himself off, in a small space with someone nearby, it seemed a little rude.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Myoki," he told her lightly, "my name is Tomar. I hadn't expected the rain to suddenly appear like that. I guess I'm not used to the weather around these parts."
